Trump denies coup attempt in latest attack on Milley
Nobody says 'if I was going to.....' without having given it some thought. Treasonous prick.

Former President Donald Trump attacked Gen. Mark Milley again on Thursday, this time over new reports that the chair of the Joint Chiefs of Staff sought to prevent Trump from perpetrating a government takeover reminiscent of Nazi Germany in the aftermath of the 2020 election.
In a more than 400-word statement issued from his post-presidential office, Trump denied that he had ever “threatened, or spoke about, to anyone, a coup of our Government,” calling the notion “So ridiculous!”
“Sorry to inform you, but an Election is my form of ‘coup,’” Trump said, “and if I was going to do a coup, one of the last people I would want to do it with is General Mark Milley.”
The statement from the former president came after excerpts published this week of a forthcoming book by Washington Post reporters Carol Leonnig and Philip Rucker stated that Milley had compared Trump’s false claims about the 2020 election to “the gospel of the Führer.”

15. One of Trump's lawyers told Trump if he testified himself that he would be wearing orange.
'Now, if I was going to do it....'
9. This insult against General Miley from the Pretender in Chief seems more like a compliment to me.
“Sorry to inform you, but an Election is my form of ‘coup,’” Trump said, “and if I was going to do a coup, one of the last people I would want to do it with is General Mark Milley.”
I believe it's because I have become accustomed to no U.S. President even contemplating staging a coup against our nation until Trump.
That's what the insurrection was all about.
What if Pence had been caught and hanged by the insurrectionists, or the Congress had become cowed to the point of abdicating its' Constitutional responsibility?
You wouldn't have to burn the Capitol to get the needed result.
Trump was silent for hours and I'm convinced it was only because he was waiting to see how it all played out.
27. Eyes
Let’s see, do I believe my own eyes? Yes, generally.
Was there a gathering of Trumpians whom DJ Trump encouraged to March on the Capitol on January 6th, 2021? Yes, I saw it with my own eyes. No doubt about it.
Were Trump flags waved inside the House and Senate chambers after the rioting crowd broke through security and stormed a session of Congress? Yes, again. I saw it with my own eyes.
Did Trump denounce this insurrection and storming of the Capitol? Nope
So, in summary. Whom should we believe? The guy who lies for a living and lied his way into the Presidency or our own eyes. My vote is my own eyes.
Trump should be tried for conspiracy and treason. I hope he meets that fate soon.
